Remove the solvent using the square-tip Pasteur pipette filtration method. Rinse the crystals with approximately 0.5 mL of ice-cold water and remove the rinse with the Pasteur pipette. Scrape the wet crystals onto a piece of filter paper and allow them to dry before determining the weight and melting point. Before leaving the laboratory, Also record your partner's results in your laboratory notebook. Put your product in an appropriate container Neutralize the filtrate with 1 N your sulfuric acid to destroy any remaining reducing agent. Put the aqueous filtrate in the appropriate liquid waste container. Dispose of all contaminated Pasteur pipettes melting point and TLC capillaries, and TLC plates in the container for chemically contaminated laboratory debris. CHEMICAL SAFETY NOTE sulfuric acid is corrosive. if any solution containing sulfuric acid comes in contact with your skin, flush the affected area immediately with water for at least five minutes and have another student notify the instructor immediately. Discuss the fact that there is more than one possible stereoisomeric product from the reduction of (plusminus)-benzoin. Discuss the reduction of benzyl and identify the products that are possible from this reaction. Based on your and your partner's results, which product(s) was formed? If one product appeared to be favored, speculate as to why this was the case. Why did you need to make two mixed melting point determinations? Did these help you identify the major product? If so, explain how. Discuss and explain the similarities and differences between the reactions run in 2-propanol, methanol, and 95% ethanol.
